I have found one called Adamakegen, but have found it unsuitable since in is written in Icon for which an interpreter is not available for my machine. Any help is very much apreciated." You have to remember that in Ada, if you want to take generics and inlining into account, it takes a very complicated program, really with the smarts of a full Ada compiler, to generate an accurate make file. GNAT can certainly be used for this purpose. Look at the ali files, the lines with D in column 1 are source dependencies, and a trivial edit script can convert the ali file contents into make file statements.
